Australia automated-vehicle framework (NTC reform; SA Trials Act 2016)
Australia's automated-vehicle regulatory framework, led nationally by the National Transport Commission (NTC) through its Automated Vehicle Program (model legislation and an Automated Driving System Entity safety-assurance framework; policy paper February 2022), and at state level by South Australia's Motor Vehicles (Trials of Automotive Technologies) Amendment Act 2016, which made South Australia the first Australian jurisdiction to allow on-road driverless trials (in force 31 March 2016). The national commercial-deployment framework is a multi-year reform program; the SA Act is the binding first-mover instrument. Covers passenger and freight vehicles.
Jurisdiction: Australia · Effective 2016-03-31
